On October 15, domestic gold prices continued to increase. In Hanoi, many people are looking to buy gold rings but have to leave because it is difficult to buy.

Recorded by Lao Dong reporter at 9:20 on October 15, the domestic price of plain round gold rings and gold bars increased simultaneously.

At gold shops in Hanoi, people's purchasing power is still high. Many points have temporarily stopped selling, but people are still waiting in long lines in the hope of buying gold bars or gold rings. Meanwhile, many people choose to leave because it is too difficult to buy.

On Tran Nhan Tong street (Hanoi), Mr. Ta Van Huan (Cua Nam ward, Hanoi) shared: "Last October, when the price of gold was about 85 million VND/tael, I bought 2 taels of gold rings. At that time, there were also many people lining up. Now the situation is still the same, I am still waiting but I am not sure if I can buy it today or not, because the store staff has announced that they will temporarily stop selling".

Mr. Huan added that if he continues to cannot buy gold, he will switch to looking for other products to store assets.

For Ms. Bui Thi Hoa (Hanoi), she has been going to gold shops on Tran Nhan Tong Street (Hanoi) for many days but has not been able to buy any.

"For many days now, I have been present on Tran Nhan Tong Street every morning since 8:30 am, when the shops have not yet opened. But people lined up in front, some said it was 5-6 am. Due to the large number, the store announced that it would not be sold, so today I had to return empty-handed" - Ms. Hoa shared.

She added that after many unsuccessful waits, she will probably consider switching to another investment channel.
